Down, but not quite out, this knackered live-action/CGI franchise is back for round seven. Technically a sequel to 2018 prequel, Bumblebee, it sees the shape-shifting robots-from-outer-space, aka the Autobots, facing a diabolical new enemy.
Well, diabolical-ish. Scourge (Peter Dinklage), the lickspittle of beyond-evil planet-killer, Unicron (Colman Domingo), resembles a new-fangled cheese grater. And his minions look like butterfly can openers. Unless kitchen implements give you the willies, you’ll be shaking with laughter throughout.
